Kerrang! Rock 100

Join Kerrang! on Saturday 27 June, 2009 from 4pm, as we reveal the UK’s top 100 greatest rock videos of all time.

Over 14,000 rock fans voted up and down the country to make sure their favourite rock video made it into the UK’s ultimate chart.

Watch Greatest Rock 100 videos – teaser

From rock legends Aerosmith to the Foo Fighters, you’ll definitely not want to miss this head banging session of the most memorable videos in rock and roll history.

The top 10 of this colossal vote includes:

1. 30 Seconds To Mars – The Kill
2. 30 Seconds To Mars – From Yesterday
3. Paramore – Misery Business
4. My Chemical Romance – I’m Not OK
5. Paramore – CrushCrushCrush
6. My Chemical Romance – The Black Parade
7. Linkin Park – What I’ve Done
8. Fall Out Boy – I Don’t Care
9. Green Day – American Idiot
10. You Me At Six – Save It For The Bedroom

Melissa Pine, Head of Marketing at Box TV said, “This countdown received a massive amount of votes, which confirms that Kerrang! is at the forefront of the rock music scene. The Top 10 reads like the definitive guide to rock videos, there’s angst, stunning effects, dark undertones, lots of heavy make-up – the ultimate opportunity to rock out.”

“The fact that 30 Seconds To Mars occupy the two top spots shows the power of a fan base and the loyal following that the band has worked up since they burst on the scene in 1998.”

Watch Kerrang!’s Rock 100 (Sky 368 and Virgin Media 342) on Saturday 27 June, 2009 from 4pm.

    That’s right! 30 Seconds To Mars to the bone!! The best band in the universe holds the greatest videos greatly created for amazing songs! The Kill is the best song ever…

    i think that is a really good list of songs.. yes the classics arnt there but were they in the top 100 ? exactly ! obvs the old ones were amazing but there time has been and its time for the newest guys to come on through and we all need to accept that otherwise there wont be any more new music :) .. so wooo love the top 10 that is a proper playlist :) :) x

    linkin park the best yehhhhhhhhhhhhhh!

  16. By Robert on Jun 29, 2009 | Reply

    YES!!! Paramore for 3rd and 5th place!!! I’m so happy!!! Congrats to 30 seconds to Mars of course.

  17. By Insaneguitarist6 on Jun 30, 2009 | Reply

    Crappy choices!!! None of them deserve to be in the top ten. MY best vid ever would probably be Best Of You by the foo fighters. Was that one of the choices? maybe im a bit bias, but i don’t think 30 seconds to mars should be in the top ten.

  18. By Insaneguitarist6 on Jun 30, 2009 | Reply

    or perhaps November Rain. Where did that come in the list? 35 or something?

  19. By Amber on Jun 30, 2009 | Reply

    YES! YES! YES!!!!

    I can’t believe that MCR is at #4, and that Fall Out Boy made is #8. They are two of the greatest new bands out there right now, and am soo proud that they made it!!!
    (*Does a happy dance*)

    It IS kind of wierd, and sad, though, that the top 10 is almost completely empty of the classics.

    I mean, where’s the Zep?
    Where’s the Aerosmith?
    Where’s the Nirvana?!

    I mean, there’s nothing wrong at all with new-wave music… But come on, people!

    i thought Kerrang was dedicated to ROCK music?

    theres no way you can call you me at six or paramore rock, and the rest of it is pretty much pathetic, predictable drivel

    where’s metallica, rage against the machine, slipknot, faith no more, korn, pantera? bands who have truly made an impact and had a major influence on the rock scene as we know it.

    Can hardly say i’m surprised though. Rock music, as it should be, is becoming a distant memory held on to by true rock fans, and this proves it.

    All the old ones came around the 70-50’s really i still think rooftops should have been in the top 10 it’s awesome

  22. By Glen on Jul 1, 2009 | Reply

    30 seconds to mars WHAT?!?! well i voted for Paramore and Metallica, dont know how Metallica weren’t there

  23. By XxSPIrex09 on Jul 1, 2009 | Reply

    im not really a 30 sec. to mars fan but the kill is a true rock song. chester bennington from linkin park is my cousin :D

    paramore misery buisness is awesome but decode is so much better

  25. By RandyRedCat on Jul 3, 2009 | Reply

    That is an awful selection, seriously!
    Including the fact that not a single one of those songs is actually pure Rock Genre but there are no signs of any classics =O
    It just seems like this is the voice of Fad-driven teenage idiots who wouldn’t know music if it hit them in the face.
    This is just spoon fed rubbish!
    And to actually believe some of these videos deserve a place ANYWHERE in the top 100 is ludicrous, Youmeatsix are generic toss, breaking the habit is a lot better video for Linkin Park by far and a better song. MCR although they hold musical skill the video was pathetic, other than the general message of emotional fanatic death those were just chances for Gerard to practically gyrate over his own voice!
    Fall Out Boy’s attempt at classic MJ parody was just epic fail and Paramores’ videos just GRAR me up so bad with their typical teen romance attitude angle that means jack shit in terms of reality.
    Seriously out of it all the only videos with actual quality were the 30stm choices and in all honesty there should only have been 1, not to say ones better than the other but top 10 positions should be for 10 bands not Pop culture choices raiding 2 each!
    No respect to rock at all with this, Kerrang made a total sham of this selection.

    Where are all the good bands, these have been picked by a bunch of teenage emo scene kids who have never heard nethin written b4 2003!!!
    Its a joke!!!!!

  27. By GnR on Jul 3, 2009 | Reply

    fully agree, all the bands that matter are forgotten nowadays

  28. By mick on Jul 4, 2009 | Reply

    i think from yesterday should have claimed the top spot

  29. By Lachlan - KotU on Jul 4, 2009 | Reply

    I just watched this top 100 and there were about 5 decent songs in the whole damn bunch. I could cry, I’ve just wasted about 7 hours of my life. Was it just 12 year old girls who voted for them?

  30. By zang on Jul 4, 2009 | Reply

    WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAHHHHH I NEVER MEANT TO BRAG, BUT WHY IS PARAMORE ONLY 3RD…lol…30STM what a band

  31. By Tyrahh S on Jul 4, 2009 | Reply

    what was the name of the smashing pumkins song when the people get on the spaceship and land on that weird planet?

  33. By Amber on Jul 6, 2009 | Reply

    Hate to post twice…But is there any way that we here is the U.S could watch this?

    Soo wish I had Kerrang! right now!

  34. By abbie on Jul 6, 2009 | Reply

    i’m not a big fan of the old classics like guns n roses etc. but to be honest i am so surprised they are not in the top 10. it’s obvious that a bunch of tweens voted (that’s a bit hypocritical as i am 16. but still)
    and paramore misery busniss? what is so great about that video? it’s terrible, nothing ‘great’ about it in my opinion

  35. By Soph on Jul 11, 2009 | Reply

    30 seconds to mars are too emo. fall out boy should of come 1st.

  36. By Pete on Jul 13, 2009 | Reply

    eurgh not my top 10, greenday and LP okay but none of the others.

  37. By AngusYoung on Jul 13, 2009 | Reply

    Soph just contradicted herself fallout boy are like the original emo band, where as 30stm are more metal

  38. By Ant on Jul 18, 2009 | Reply

    Yeh i like all these bands, but you can tell its a public vote bcouz the real top 10 would include alot older bands and proper legends. Whoever sed ‘at least they’re in the top 100′ is still wrong bcouz how have videos from bigger bands lost to paramore and 30 stm.

  39. By Doc on Aug 5, 2009 | Reply
